Quotes Artland Dragons vs. Keravnos Strovolou

29.11.2011

Stefan Koch, head coach Artland Dragons:"We had a lot of respect of Keravnos. They are a well-prepared and well-coached team and they deserve to advance with us to the next round. A lot has been said about stats today. What I didn't like about the stats are the 15 offensive rebounds we gave away. We started the game well offensively, but tried to force things in the second quarter which affected our defense. In the third and fourth quarter we picked it up. We are happy to advance to the next round after four games only."

Anthony Hilliard, player Artland Dragons:"We came out very well and played good as a team, because we wanted to advance. In the second half we picked up our defense and as the stats show we were better."

Panagiotis Yiannaras, head coach Keravnos Strovolou:"There is not much to say about the game. We knew it would be a hard game, but we tried to do, what we always do and play a good defense. We did that in the second quarter, but ten minutes are not enough to win the game. We didn't step up as we should, but sometimes you learn more from a game like this."

Ales Chan, player Kervanos Strovolou_"The Dragons wanted to win this game more than we wanted it today. They had more assists, less turnover and shot a higher percentage. The stats say everything about this game."
